    cancel button Application.Inputbox

    Gurus,

    I have a macro that uses an Application.InputBox. All works well, thanks to users of this forum, except when the user selects Cancel on the input box. I am looking for the code to exit the macro when the cancel button is selected.

    Looking through the forum, I have added the BOLD lines but I just don't know enough about VB as to what to define the strButton to. Or even if I am doing this correctly.

    Can someone guide me?

    TIA,
    Tim

    Norie,

    Unless I am placing the code in the wrong area, it doesn't seem to work.

    Re: cancel button Application.Inputbox

    Where are you placing it and how is it not working?

    It should basically replace this part of your code.

    Oh, and you could remove strButton and this.

    Re: cancel button Application.Inputbox

    What's the error message?

    Also, what level to do have Error trapping set at?

    You can find that out by going to the General tab under Tools>Options... in the VBE.

    Norie,

    Sorry, I meant to supply the error message before. The macro is selecting a picture (object) and asking where to place it on a different excel sheet.

    The error is
    error.jpg

    and the options are
    VBoptions.jpg


    Thanks.

    Re: cancel button Application.Inputbox

    This line is actually supposed to check if Rng is an object, if Rng isn't an object then the sub should be exited?

    Is the error definitely on this line?

    Can you upload an example workbook?

    Click on GO ADVANCED and use the paperclip icon to open the upload window.

    Re: cancel button Application.Inputbox

    Norie,

    Here are the files. The one that contains the macro is Master RFQ-V11.xlsm

    MASTER RFQ-V11.xlsm
    MASTER QUOTE LIST - Blank.xlsm

    Please note that the macro being used is Transfer_Info and can be accessed through the button labeled "Send to Master Quote List".

    The macro opens the Master Quote List.xlsm from a specific directory. You will need to change that. I am sure you know this but I wanted to point it out.

    I send you a "blank" Master Quote List" because to file size issues.

    Thanks,
    Tim

    By the way, what are you actually copying to the other workbook?

    Is it the logo or the logo and some data?

    Re: cancel button Application.Inputbox

    Awesome. that worked.

    the logo is replaced by a picture of a part that is quoted. that picture and some data are transferred to a master list so we can refer back to a quote. Using an object was the only way that I knew how to transfer the picture and data in one click.

    Thanks Again!!!

    Tim

    Re: cancel button Application.Inputbox

    Actually just realised why you were getting the error.

    For the code I posted you would have to declare Rng at the top of the sub as a Range.
